Abstract

Unsupervised Learning: Foundations of Neural Computation is a collection of 21 papers published in the journal Neural Computation in the 10-year period since its founding in 1989 by Terrence Sejnowski. Neural Computation has become the leading journal of its kind. The editors of the book are Geoffrey Hinton and Terrence Sejnowski, two pioneers in neural networks. The selected papers include some of the most influential titles of late, for example, "What Is the Goal of Sensory Coding" by David Field and "An Information-Maximization Approach to Blind Separation and Blind Deconvolution" by Anthony Bell and Terrence Sejnowski. The edited volume provides a sample of important works on unsupervised learning, which cut across the fields of
